Fashion companies aren't usually keen on people counterfeiting their goods or misusing their logo, even if it's for satirical purposes. But some have a curiously relaxed approach when it comes to appropriating the designs of others themselves, especially when it comes to turning symbols of counterculture into motifs for corporate fashion.

The epic legal battle that ensued has finally reached a conclusion.
